Why is pornography still alive and not illegal? Why doesn’t the government do about tricking women into them?

The number of women willing to do porn voluntarily is staggeringly high. Like you wouldn’t even believe.

And what you personally consider icky has even less bearing on what is or is not illegal. You think porn sex is icky? Fine, you do you, bruh.

Pornography is still alive and not illegal for two reasons:

What is the Abu Shusha massacre in Palestine?

Criminals who won’t hesitate to traffic people, if it makes them money. The way you solve the problem is to remove the financial incentive to traffic people.

Here’s a neat mental exercise:

If you ask anti-porn crusaders why porn should be banned, you will usually get three answers: “My preacher says the invisible god I worship says it’s wrong,” “sex is icky yucky ick ick ick unless it happens between people I say it should happen between, in situations I say it should happen in,” and “lookit all the women who are hurt by porn, I totally care about saving women (but not respecting their autonomy, offering them paid maternity leave, or, you know, doing any of those other things that would materially improve women’s lives).”

Why would my nipples hurt when I touch them?

Normal people know that what your particular preachers say has no bearing on what is or is not legal.

What your preacher says isn’t worth a wet fart through used toilet paper. Your preacher might say it’s a sin to eat pork or have sex on Sunday or cut your hair in certain ways or whatever, but that doesn’t make it the law of the land.

Say by creating an environment where people do the thing voluntarily, et voila.

Is it wise to choose your family over your honor?

Making it illegal harms people, particularly women.

Look, this is simple, so I’ll type slowly: The more open, legitimate, and free porn production is, the fewer women are trafficked. Why on earth would you take the risk of trafficking people to force them to do something plenty of people are willing to do voluntarily?

Compare your lists. Notice anything funny?

We've finally slowed the surge in overdose deaths. The Trump admin may undo all of it - Salon.com

That’s not a coincidence.

…criminals.

When you ban porn, you turn porn production into a criminal enterprise. Criminal enterprises are run by…

Why did Cartman love Heidi purely with heart, her being the first one he ever did, but then one day Butters tells him that all women are manipulative and then he began to believe that she was a bad person and pretended to be a victim?

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

Finally, “oh wow I want to protect the wimmens all the poor poor wimmens” ah HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha no you heckin’ don’t.

Make a list of the countries where women are treated as second-class citizens or property.

Do you as a gay male enjoy the feeling of getting a penis in your anus?

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

But don’t mistake your personal opinion for Moral Truth or the law of the land. If it were, I’d have eggplants (aubergine for you Brits) banned tomorrow.

Make a list of the countries that most stringently ban porn, with the harshest penalties.

If sea levels were rising, wouldn't the acreage of coastal salt marshes increase? Are they?

Making it illegal harms people, especially women.
